AGATES (FLUORESCENT)

Agate is a captivating variety of microcrystalline quartz prized for its natural translucence and striking bands of color. These gemstones form when silica-rich fluids seep into hollow pockets within rocks—or even ancient fossils—slowly depositing layer after layer of silica over thousands to millions of years. As the chemistry of these fluids shifts, so do the colors and patterns, creating the signature banding that makes every agate completely unique. From delicate waterline layers to swirling, concentric rings, agate’s natural artistry has made it a favorite among collectors, jewelers, and anyone who appreciates Earth’s most beautiful creations.
